If you are using needle lengths less than 1 1/2 inches long to inject into the glutes then you probably wasting the contents of the injection by depositing it subcutaneously right under the skin instead of in the muscle. You'll know if you did this because you'll notice a hard, round lump at the site within a day or so. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Be careful base... The reason 1 inch aren't that safe for glute injections is because the needle might not be long enough. You have to make sure it goes through your veins and not in them. I've used them before but prefer 1 1/2 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

This subject is always so funny to me. I've used 1 in. on each my cycles and I have never had a problem. Yes, it did get in the muscle and not under the skin, the gear worked for sure! If a person has 1 in. of fat on their ass, then I cant help you there, but I'm around 11%bf and I never hit a vein, get a lump under my skin or any problem what so ever. If you are worried, then go with the longer needle for your own peace of mind, but if 1 in. is all you can get, it should be good enough as long as you arent fat. Consult with 2Thick and see what he thinks... ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I've used both but definitely prefer 1 1/2" and not because i'm fat. I don't think i've ever been over 12% but simply because I have had instances where the juice will try to run back out the pin hole with a 1" but I have never had that happen with a 1 1/2". Another reason that I prefer the longer needle is because after a while you do begin to build up a certain amount of scar tissue and you want to be sure that you are deep enough into the muscle. Good luck... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I'm lean so the 1 inch is plenty long for me. also you can get it in an extra half inch anyway if needed by simply depressing the neck of the pin it down against the skin. For delt injections I only use a 5/8 inch needle and it gets all the way into the muscle by just depressing it a little. Since a lot of the gear I use requires daily injections I prefer to use the smallest pins I can get by with....... ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

1-1.5 INCH WILL BE FINE FOR THE GLUTES WITH EITHER 22-23 G NEEDLE 1 INCH FOR THE LEGS WITH 22-23 G. ALL OTHER BODY PARTS CAN GET BY WITH 5/8 INCH. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I perfere the 2 foot pins, the do a good job i believe, some times i can even reach the other butt cheek, so i say if i can inject it in the middle of my self that must be better then just an inch or an inch and a half. try it bro's more is better, this way u can inject that 10cc's of juice uve been dieing to shoot up, but ran outa injection sites. =) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

1 inch is fine for glutes if you are lean, but I have switched to 1.5's to push through old scar tissue, and engage different depths of the muscle ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
